Exactly. UAV pre in MW2 was about as "balanced" as possible. The 5-7-9, 5-7-11 or 7-11-25 killstreak setups in particular prevented UAV spam. Stopping Power and Danger Close prevented the major need for Cold Blooded although many people still used that perk.
People hate things that make games more difficult for them while simultaneously using every shortcut possible.
People attach "camper" and "tryhard" to anything they don't like to get sympathy. UAV can actually aid campers. You could use Assassin to counter people camping with Portable radar with Support UAVs up. It's just easier to pretend UAV is some noble killstreak. Not to mention most players who think they're rushers aren't good at it. The better you are the less campers can affect you and less likely are you are dependent on UAVs.
Finally someone agrees with me on the rushers part lol.
People think just cuz they rush, means they r better than everyone else, yet you would find these awesome rushers below 500 most of the time, makes me laugh.
Hell yeah UAV helps campers. But whats even worse is blast shield, its hard enough as is to actually kill someone with a nade, then you add blast shield then its impossible, on top of that you add trophy system.
Worst thing ive ever seen was a guy on dome camping in the warehouse with blast shield, trophy system, and IMS as his streak, IMS was blocking one way to the warehouse, he was hiding behind a glass-wood thingy inside with a trophy system between him and the front door, with an LMG with thermal on it. Now thats a camper.
